We started Warlord Games with plastic Imperial Romans, and this year, we return to our roots – our next plastic set for our Hail Caesar Ancients range will be more Romans! This time, they'll be Caesarian/Late Republican! Here are a few preview snaps of the three-ups from before we sent them to the toolmakers.

As you'd imagine, the plastic command group comprises of centurion, standardbearer and musician. Using the same bodies as the legionaries, these will be able to be built in a variety of poses as a result.

We've added arms with slings to the sprues as an unusual optional extra to the gladius and pilum arms.

As you can see, these models are considerably different from our Imperial Roman legionaries, with chainmail armor, oval shields, and Montefortino helmet.

The new plastics will be released 'soon'™ and, as you'd expect, also be supported by a range of metal models.
